Perhaps this is possible, but it would not be the easiest way. Connecting
MSX to PC is possible via the joystickport(s) or printerport (depends on
the direction of the stream). I heard people are working on a standardized
connection via joynet.
But for the applications you want to use, why should you want to connect
it to the PC at all? The MSX can handle those things very well on it's
own.
